Try this: set thermostat system selector to emergency mode, raise temperature a few degrees, and see if warm air is produced after a few minutes.

supposing you are talking about a heatpump freezing up,,,Its way past time you should stop using it and run on emergancy heat till you get the HP fixed,,,,can`t be good to keep running it,,,all the harm it would cause running in emergancy heat all the time would be to your pocketbook,,,but thats better than having to replace the heatpump

jeszee125 agrees: The problem was in the heat pump....it was the sensor. The sensor was not working therefor it didn't relay to the defroster that it was cold and the unit was building up with ice which made it not work properly
